Query on Enabling Horizon Support for Creating SR-IOV VMs
by Aditya Sathish 29 Aug '23

29 Aug '23

Hello, We have enabled SR-IOV external interfaces on our server cluster running OpenStack Yoga. Unfortunately, there is a known limitation on the Horizon dashboard where we cannot create virtual machines through the dashboard - forcing us to rely on the OpenStack CLI to create the VMs. I wanted to understand what precisely the limitation was to support this from Horizon and if there were any cherry-picks I could pull from the later releases that would allow me to provide this support through the dashboard (or upgrade my release to 2023.1). I did see that we can now select the VNIC_Type from the dashboard, but that doesn't resolve the issue of VM creation with SR-IOV ports. Any points would be greatly appreciated. Regards, Aditya

[kolla] using local package mirror for image builds
by Jonathan Proulx 29 Aug '23

29 Aug '23

HI All, Using `kolla-build -b ubuntu` to build container images keeps timing out (well hanging for literal days) seemingly on package downloads from remote mirrors. I'm new to kolla and kolla-ansible so I may be misdiagnosing the cause of my current issue but we de have local ubuntu package mirros which would be faster in any case. Is there a way to specify using only a local package mirror? Thanks, -Jon

[Neutron] Default gateway for IPv6 is 0
by Xing Zhang 29 Aug '23

29 Aug '23

Hello everyone, In my test environment, I noticed that the default gateway for IPv6 is changed from 1 to 0, is this correct? Reproduce steps are: * openstack cli: openstack network create test-ipv6-net openstack subnet create --subnet-range 2001:db8::200:0/64 --ip-version 6 --ipv6-ra-mode dhcpv6-stateful --ipv6-address-mode dhcpv6-stateful --network test-ipv6-net test-ipv6-subnet # the gateway_ip in the output is 2001:db8::200: but 2001:db8::200:1 is the expected IP * neutron cli: neutron net-create test-v6 neutron subnet-create --name test-v6-subnet --ip-version 6 test-v6 2002:db8::200:0/64 # the gateway_ip in the output is 2001:db8::200: but 2001:db8::200:1 is the expected IP there are 3 versions of OpenStack I've tested, the results are: OpenStack Rocky: 2001:db8::200:1 OpenStack Train: 2001:db8::200:1 OpenStack Wallaby: 2001:db8::200: the virtual router will use the gateway ip for port, and some hardware networking sdn controller for neutron may not work.

[ptls][tc] OpenStack User Survey Updates
by Allison Price 29 Aug '23

29 Aug '23

Hi Everyone, Like Helena mentioned last week, we are closing the 2023 OpenStack User Survey in a few weeks and will then open the 2024 OpenStack User Survey. At this time, we want to offer the project teams and TC the opportunity to update your project specific questions that appear at the end of the survey. As a reminder, for the project-specific questions, these appear if a survey taker selects your project in their deployment and TC questions appear to all survey takers. If you and your team would like to update the question, please let me know by Friday, August 18. I know that this is a holiday time for many, so if any team needs some extra time, just let me know. I am also able to share the existing questions with any team that needs a refresher on what is currently in the survey. In the meantime, please continue to promote openstack.org/usersurvey to anyone (and everyone!) you know who is running OpenStack or planning to in the future. We want to get as much feedback as we possibly can. Cheers, Allison

[nova][election] Self-nomination for 2024.1 Nova PTL
by Sylvain Bauza 28 Aug '23

28 Aug '23

Hey Nova and Placement folks, Yet again, I'm asking you to put myself on the Nova and Placement PTL seat. For the exact same reasons than last time (see my previous nomination e-mail), I was convinced to run again for this position, which hopefully will be the last one (despite having already said it once). Challenges are still upfront. Our gate is still coughing every single day and despite the excellent work that a very few awesome people did on stabilizing and which helped improving the situation (kudos to those who will recognize themselves), we are still urging to fix the most common patterns. As a PTL, I'll ensure to keep the energy to chase those issues and identify them so as a team we can fight them. Another concern to me is the reviewing pace. While we're continuing to deliver solid reviews on feature proposals and patches, our team isn't much evolving and we need fresh blood. In order to be able to deliver things, we need to ensure that we properly recognize those who dedicate a portion of their daytime to help others by providing valuable feedback (and I stress on the fact that this feedback *has to* be valuable in order to by worthy). As a PTL, I'll continue to encourage people to express their thoughts and concerns into Gerrit comments so that we are able to count on. The last challenge I have to mention here is the release cadence. Now that more people are getting noticed of the SLURP cadence, we'll be awaited on delivering our next SLURP release, which will be 2024.1 (Caracal). I'll take special attention to that, ensuring that our skip-level-upgrade process we have in Nova will conveniently work with Caracal and that our release notes correctly include the upgrade steps for those who skip 2023.2 (Bobcat). I'll just finish on a last word. While I really appreciated acting as a PTL for the last 4 cycles, I'd be more than happy if someone would like to step up and compete for the seat. I personnally prefer expansion over attrition and one of my favourite tasks is mentoring. Thanks, -Sylvain
